Security
Encrypted access. No shrugging.
OctoTherm is small, but it still lives on a network. The public site should make it clear that security is not an afterthought.
🔐
Encrypted device access
All access to the device is encrypted. The device ships with a built in certificate we recommend you generating a new certificate after initial setup. We also allow you to upload certifcates from your SSL provider(or internal CA). All backups are 100% encrypted we take your privacy seriously.

Local-first design
OctoTherm does not need a cloud service to do its job. No data is ever exchanged with us. This device can run in a 100% air-gapped configuration with 0 issues. Monitoring should never compromise network security

Transparent behavior
Open standards and open project goals make it easier to inspect, integrate, monitor, and improve.

Get the data when you need it and make corrections before emergencies happen. Good metrics allow you to spot patterns. Heat can be a determining factor in device health. Recently we noticed a change recently on a major storage array vendors array temperatures change immediately after a system update. Upon quering the vendor they had quitely tweaked a de-dupe algorithm which reduced CPU usage netting the arrays about a 3c array drop in temperature. They were very impressed we were able to pick out a small detail through our telemetry.

Plain English security promise: OctoTherm should be useful without forcing users to trade away control, visibility, or good network hygiene.
